Dear Grace and Truth Conference attendees,
We are excited to inform you about 2 breakout sessions we are offering this year during our conference. Please RSVP if you are interested.
Both of these sessions will be taught by Jeremy Sauskojus who has served for over 25 years as the music-worship pastor at Grace Bible Church in Bozeman, Montana.
Pain, suffering, and hardship are part of the reality of living in a dark world that is impacted by sin.
Even in such settings, we are called to be God’s ambassadors by being salt and light. As under-shepherds, we can encourage and equip the flock through music-worship to navigate such scenarios for the Lord’s glory.
When? Thursday 5-6:00pm (during dinner)
Pre-conference attendees please RSVP by contacting the church office by phone (406-761-0464) or email (info@emmanuelbible.org)
Whether you sing, play an instrument, select music, or serve on the tech ministry team, music used in the corporate worship gathering can be used to encourage the local church fellowship to be salt and light. Along these lines, a Biblical Theology of Music can help each local church fellowship by encouraging the flock to be salt and light.
Who is this for? Open to anyone interested or part of music ministry in the local church (sound and tech included)
When? Saturday 12-1pm (during lunch)
Main conference attendees please RSVP HERE.
